Hydroponic Farm

Hydroponic Farm grows a single plant when sown with a seed. It can be used as floor tile and rotated (upside-down) before construction.

Usage
Hydroponic Farms allow liquid delivery for irrigation. Following plants are recommended to be planted with Hydroponic Farm:
 * Bristle Blossom, Sleet Wheat and Oxyfern use Water.
 * Waterweed uses Salt Water.
 * Nosh Sprout uses Ethanol.
 * Pincha Pepper uses Polluted Water and shall be planted downward.
 * Arbor Tree and Thimble Reed use Polluted Water.
 * Gas Grass uses Liquid Chlorine.

Supplying wrong Liquid will stifle the plant growth until the Hydroponic Farm is emptied.

The temperature of liquid is irrelevant as long as it is consumed and does not overstay in pipes and farm tile. However regular pipes still can be heated by liquid passing, so using Insulated Pipe is recommended when the temperature of input liquid does not match plant's preference.

Tips
See Farm Tile for tips; Hydroponic Farms is just a pipe-able version of Farm Tile.
 * Irrigation (liquid delivery) is automated by Hydroponic Farm, but fertilization (solid delivery) will still need to be supplied by Duplicants.
 * It can be further automated by Auto-Sweeper.
 * Make sure your dupes can reach the farm tile either from above or below. For Pincha Pepper hanging installation, if the room height is four or higher the dupes cannot reach them from below without help.
